The Pokemon Company has officially announced the next in-game event for its hit mobile title, Pokemon Masters EX.

Titled “Shining Sky-High Sync Moves,” the event is scheduled to launch on May 30th, 2025, and brings a fresh content update for dedicated players.

Developed by DeNA in partnership with The Pokemon Company, Pokemon Masters EX has consistently delivered new experiences and characters since its debut on mobile platforms, cementing its status as a major entry in the wider Pokemon series outside of traditional consoles like the Nintendo Switch. Shining Sky-High Sync Moves will spotlight new Neo Champion Sync Pairs, featuring Elio and Selene—protagonists from the acclaimed Pokemon Sun and Moon games.

This collaborative duo, known to fans as the main characters who journeyed across the Alola region, will now bring their unique skills and sync moves to Pasio Island.

In this event, the Sync Pair’s special attacks will be showcased, giving Trainers new strategic options within their teams. A representative from The Pokemon Company stated that this initiative highlights the ongoing commitment to expanding Pokemon Masters EX with engaging content, ensuring that both new and returning players have exciting reasons to dive back into the game regularly.

The company has made it a priority to commemorate characters across various titles, deepening the game’s appeal for longtime fans and newcomers alike. Since its worldwide launch in August 2019, Pokemon Masters EX has frequently ranked among the top-grossing mobile games on iOS and Android devices.

The game’s continuous rollout of events, such as Multi-Pair Sync Moves and thematic story arcs, has contributed to its widespread popularity and a steady player base.

Pokemon Masters EX is lauded for bringing together fan-favorite trainers and legendary Pokémon from the main series, creating unique battles and storylines that are unavailable elsewhere in the franchise. With the Shining Sky-High Sync Moves event, fans can look forward to new challenges and rewards.

Players will be able to participate in exclusive event battles and unlock special in-game items celebrating the arrival of Elio and Selene as Neo Champion Sync Pairs.

The event will be accessible through the game’s eShop update, ensuring straightforward participation for all players. Trainers eager to expand their roster and test their strategies won’t want to miss this update.

Pokemon Masters EX continues to demonstrate the strength of the franchise’s mobile offerings, delivering ongoing value and innovation in the free-to-play gaming landscape.
